Join us for the first session of 2025 of the Neuroscience & Justice Luncheon Series. Caring for others is a profound responsibility, but it can also take a significant toll on both the body and mind. In this installment of Neuroscience & Justice, our experts will share compelling personal stories of burnout and explore its impact on the human brain. Don’t miss this chance to gain invaluable insights, enhance your expertise, and help shape a more compassionate approach to justice. The Neuroscience & Justice series aims to explore the profound impact of life experiences—such as discrimination, trauma, chronic stress, and substance use—on emotions, decision-making, and cognitive processes. By unraveling these complexities, our aim is to provide a comprehensive understanding of how these factors influence individuals navigating the justice system. This series is not only crafted to provide legal professionals and practitioners with a nuanced comprehension of the topic under discussion, empowering them in their field, but to provide credible resources to help legal practitioners implement their new learning in real-time.

If interested in attending, please RSVP by January 26, 2025, to secure your spot at this enlightening series. We look forward to welcoming you for an eye-opening exploration into Neuroscience & Justice. For more information, please see the registration survey and event flyer.
